Drink Coffee - Live Longer

Live Longer, Healthier Through Coffee? Studies Find a Link %u2013 Health Essentials from Cleveland Clinic. It is now clear that the science shows that coffee drinkers; especially, black coffee, live longer, get less cancer, and are healthier than those who don't. The studies confirm what previous studies have found and it doesn't appear to matter whether the coffee is decaffeinated. This is serious stuff, and there is obviously something going on here. So, have that coffee, and live long and prosper.

 "Previous research also has connected coffee consumption with a decreased risk for developing Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases as well as improved control of type 2 diabetes.“Those people lived longer and had decreased immune dysfunction, decreased cancer rates, decreased cardiovascular disease rates, decreased liver dysfunction and decreased immune dysfunction".

 

 

#PoetryFriday - Microcosm

MICROCOSM

He caressed her alabaster skin
attempting to wipe away the pain of her past.
He remembered his own pain.

It invaded the world of passion and love
and moved freely
inside the hearts of lovers.

Like a microbe
it travelled through the blood vessels
mingling with good cells and bad.

Pain grew like a cancer
uncontrollable and spreading everywhere.

Was his love the antidote?
Would it heal?
Would it bring a clean, fresh face in the morning?

He wanted to tell her
that tomorrow would bring freedom
from pain.
He wanted to tell her
that tomorrow would be a good day
to begin the rest of their lives.

He only kissed her
and wiped the tears away.

How to Automatically Clear Browsing History in Google Chrome

How to Automatically Clear Browsing History in Google Chrome. You have no secrets. You are a good person. But, that doesn't mean you want anyone poring over your browsing history. You have a curious mind, and you sometimes search for stuff that might be misunderstood. Of course, you also might be a bad person, I don't know. But, in any event, you don't need a Medic Alert bracelet that says: "Delete My Browsing History", in the event you are run over by a truck. So, how about this. Save your money on the bracelet, and tell your browser to delete your history every time you close the browser. Problem solved. Just try not to get hit by a truck.

All Google - All The Time

Google to move Messages from Android.com to Google.com - 9to5Google. If, like me, you use Google apps all the time, 9 to 5 Google doesn't seem adequate. How about 12 to 12 Google, or Google Around The Clock? Whatever. I love having my text messages show up on a tab in Chrome, and pop up at the bottom of the screen. Life is much more convenient when you don't have to pick up your phone every time it beeps. So, while the uninitiated might not care that the Android mark has seen its end of days, Google appears to be retiring the name one website at a time. So, hello messages.google.com, and goodbye messages.android.com. We really don't care as long as our SMS and MMS messages show up on the Tab Bar. Jeez.

Indifference To Life's Problems And Successes

The True Power Behind Stoic %u201CIndifference%u201D %u2013 Daily Stoic | Stoic Wisdom For Everyday Life. The Bucs lost another game. I am indifferent to their failure. My team wins a championship. I am indifferent to their success. Indifference to everything external to ourselves is the real key to a happy life. I didn't understand this until I realized that it no longer mattered to me whether a bunch of young men who were millionaires won a child's game by showing athletic prowess on a field of play. In fact, happiness comes from realizing that we are "indifferent" to success or failure in every endeavor in life, save one. We control our bodies and our minds. We get to decide whether we are going to let the outcome of a game, or the outcome of a business deal, or the outcome of litigation, define how we see the world. Break free of the chains of expectation. Expect nothing, and gain the world.

All I Want For Xmas

#Christmas - Christmas Memories

Christmas Is A Memory

He tried to remember how she looked in the kitchen
on Christmas Day.
A turkey in the oven
Fresh dressing in the pan
and wonderful smells that filled the room.

This Christmas,
another stood in her place
but never has tried to take her space
and knows
from experience
what loss feels like on holidays.

They sit
with ghosts
and fill empty chairs
with memories
while they create a present
with a companion
who understands.

The room is filled with the same smells
The Christmas tree shimmers in the light
of the same room.
The tables are stacked
with the same ornaments and tinsel.
The TV blares the same football games
and music.
Everything is different
but the same.

Joy and heartache
become brothers for a day
until the next day comes
and a future
of joy
and heartache
waits for everyone.

#MerryXmas Dylan Thomas Reading "A Child's Christmas In Wales" In 1952.

Welsh poet, Dylan Thomas, is recorded here reading his long poem, "A Child's Christmas In Wales". We did the reading in my Communications class in College in the Sixties. I have a CD collection of Thomas reading just about everything he ever wrote. If ever a poet's work was meant to be read aloud, it is Thomas. His melodic mastery of the English language resonates today. Take a few minutes and lose yourself in the magic of Christmas. Then, hug everyone you love, realizing that they won't be there forever. Beautiful moments are transient. Appreciate them.
